**Associate or Senior Editor,**_ Nature Cities_**

**Location: London, NYC, Berlin, Shanghai, Tokyo, Madrid, Washington DC **(other Springer Nature office locations also considered)**

**Full Time, Permanent Role**

**Closing date: 5th April 2023**

Springer Nature is seeking an editor with a strong quantitative background (e.g. engineering, urban science) to join the editorial team of _Nature Cities_, a new journal that will launch in 2024.

Does understanding the different dimensions of cities and their roles in our changing world interest you? Do you marvel at the similarities and differences within and across cities - of people, institutions, built forms, and broader environments? Do you enjoy reading outside your area(s) of expertise and making linkages among fields and ideas? The editors of _Nature Citie_s will do all of these while working together to convene a range of advances and insights rarely featured in one venue.
- Nature Cities_ will publish original research, reviews and opinions on cities, urban issues and urban environments - past, present and future - as well as on the ways cities impact and are impacted by their broader social, economic and ecological environments, near and far. It will consider submissions from the natural and social sciences, engineering, planning, policy, and other areas. _Nature Cities_ will join a portfolio of SDG-linked titles, which includes _Nature Sustainability_, _Nature Food_, _Nature Energy_ and _Nature Climate Change_.
- Engineering (e.g. civil, mechanical, urban)
- Physics (e.g. statistical mechanics)
- Urban science

Applicants must have a relevant PhD and, preferably, postdoctoral or equivalent experience. Editor positions are demanding and intellectually stimulating. Broad knowledge and training; excellent writing, speaking, and time-management skills; the ability to absorb new areas; and an interest in the practice and communication of scholarship are required. Applicants should be dynamic, collegial and outgoing, with excellent interpersonal skills. A key aspect of the job is liaising with the scientific community through laboratory visits and international conferences, so willingness to travel is essential.

The positions are offered on a full-time, permanent basis and can be located in our London, New York, Madrid, Berlin, Shanghai, Beijing, Tokyo, or Washington, DC offices (hybrid working).

**To apply, please send**
- a brief cover letter explaining your interest and preparation and your salary expectations
- a CV;
- a selection of 4-5 articles recently published that you think represent the scope of research relevant to cities (provide the full reference and a link to the article, and give a brief rationale for your choice)

US employees are eligible for benefits including, but not limited to, medical, dental, vision, short and long term disability, life and AD&D insurance, tuition assistance, employee assistance program, paid vacation and sick time, flexible spending accounts, and a 401k retirement savings plan.
